Review on Latch Lock Cable Repair Kit with 16 Ends – Replacement Parts for F-series, E-series, Ranger, Expedition, Excursion, Navigator by Bryce Marshall

For a long time I've been telling everyone what a crap GM and Chrysler are doing by saying that Ford is the best domestically engineered after this nightmare , which will end. In this case, when the door opens, remove the latches because you will never be able to open it again. My product was a 2004 Pleasurer Way E350 with 8000 miles on it. Side door I bent the cables to open it. The bottom of the door is filled with granulated Chinese plastic from the original ends of the cables. The rear doors weren't bad, the kit itself is very light, the problem is Ford's poor design. It's a nightmare to open the side door to work with the riveted handle making it impossible to get the center of the rivet knock out, access to drill out the rivet so that when you come out the hole is easily bricked up. Straighten the vise, just trust me, I'm the best, it's 100% Ford's fault. The set works great and is easy to install. I might add that you need an open door for access. Drilling out the rivets does not guarantee that you can use pliers by pulling on the cable that opens as the Chinese plastic that aligns the cable with the latch has degenerated so it ties what I found when trying to to open the door. I was able to straighten the cable and now it works great with the new kit. You will need a premium riveter, a premium torx set, alignment punches, regular punches, you will need to buy rivets, various screwdrivers, pliers and premium rivets for handles and electric locks. I bought a box of 25 replacement Ford power lock rivets. Castles. interfering with disassembly and reassembly attach the electric lock pull out the lock assembly with the inner pin pass the lock through the hole in the lock and then replace one of the torxes that hold the lock.
